The potential series stars Bomer as movie mogul Monroe Stahr, who rises to power as a wunderkind studio executive in the 1930s. Per Deadline, Grammer will play Pat Brady, the brawny, charming and vain studio head against whom Monroe is pitted on his journey to success.

Rosemarie DeWitt (United States of Tara) has also been cast as Rose Brady, Pat’s wife who may be involved with Monroe.
